partion questions

[Changlinn]

Quick question for all you partioners out there, I have now seen this work twice. A bios that only supports hard drives of like 5gb, take the 10gb hd out partion it on another computer to 2x 5gb partitions and hey presto in the old computer it has now got 2 5gb drives? the bios shouldn't let this work but it does, please explain.

Another question when is the realese for partition magic for win me so I can finally move around my partitions.

Should only be an issue on older computers.

Find the Manufacturer of the HD in question and use their set-up software to install it. (Easily downloadable from their website) It can creat an EZBIOS that will load at start-up and allow your PC to use a bigger HD than the BIOS manufacturer originally intended.
